Saints Place LB Stanley Arnoux on IR

The New Orleans Saints have placed linebacker Stanley Arnoux on injured reserve, Sheldon Mickles of The Advocate reports.

Arnoux suffered an Achilles' injury during Sunday's 34-19 win over the Seattle Seahawks.

A fourth-round pick (118th overall) out of Wake Forest in 2009, Arnoux (6-0, 232) had five tackles and a fumble recovery on special teams this season. Arnoux missed all of his rookie season after rupturing his left Achilles' tendon during a mini-camp practice.
